About Me

I study fundamental properties of the Universe through observations of the largest gravitationally bound structures — galaxy clusters. I also investigate how large N-body simulations, which create a Universe-in-a-box, can aid in these studies. I am a member of the Roman, UNIONS and Euclid collaborations.

I was born in Liverpool in the UK, did my undergraduate degree in Lancaster University, and went to the University of Edinburgh for my PhD. I completed a Leverhulme Study Abroad Scholarship at the University of Waterloo during my PhD program. I have been rock climbing from a young age, and I also enjoy squash, swimming, reading and music.
